Well keeping the .jar file under WEB-INF/lib folder for that application
works for me in tomcat.

Subject: [JDBC] Problem wih JDBC driver under Windows XP

Hi all!

I've some problems in connecting to postgreSQL with the JDBC driver from my
JSP page.

I've installed PostgreSQL for Windows, ver. 7.1.2, so I took on the site the
pg72jdbc2.jar file as JDBC driver.

Then I followed all the steps in the documentation at the URL
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/doc.html <http://jdbc.postgresql.org/doc.html> .
Because i need to use the jdbc driver with Java Server Pages, I didn't use
the classpath method, but I copyed the driver directly in the lib/ext
directory in my JVM path.

I can connect to the DB with PgAdmin 2, but when I try to connect from my
JSP page, the Tomcat WebServer says:

"java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.postgresql.Driver"

What did I forget???

Thanks, Luca.
